Filco majestouch-2 ninja blue or brown?
« on: Sat, 30 July 2011, 09:45:45 »
i dont know if i will get xarmor or filco still but i ordered both just to compare and i will eventually return one.
for filco, how come i see many people get brown switch instead of blue?
is something wrong with blue switch? maybe because it's too loud?

Thanks for raising the costs of buying a keyboard.  No wonder Filcos costs like $30 more in 2011 than 2010.

I didn't opt for blue because of the click noise.

yes i wld take the brown any day just because of the sound the blue makes. In fact, when i first got my browns, I already felt it was noisier compared to my previous rubber domes.

With returned items, the seller is losing some of the original profit margin. When the seller anticipates he would sell lots of returned items, he would want to make up for that potential loss somewhere. Since the buyer is the curious one in the first place, why shouldn't he take the loss and sell it himself, like a man?

The other trick is with Elitekeyboards either claim your Leopold keyboard pings or the HHKB keys have sprue marks on the back of the keys and aren't aligned with 1 degree precision.

lol at the hhkb. that guy was so weird

Don't buy something with the intention of returning it :/
That is a few ethical tick marks away from stealing in my book, you're effectively costing them money for your own curiosity.

Hehe. We had people here who were leasing luxury cars and returning them after 30 days for a full refund. Or at least they did, I think the law changed.
